Hand

Two years ago, I went to Santa Fe for the wedding of a dear friend. While there, like many tourists do, I felt compelled to buy something Southwestern. This hand piece stuck out to me. As an artist the hand is the conduit of creativity.
When I was a teen I took an art class in which I found a Mayan symbol...the blue hand...or something like that. As a youth I was searching for a symbol that I could relate to and my teacher had a book of Mayan symbols...to this day I sign my name with this hand symbol.
Well it all has come together this blue hand and this pendent purchase. When I thought up the Walk with ME project, I thought it came out of the blue but as I look at old notes and think about my artistic path this is a culmination of thoughts and acts. Which these relics of the past point to.

My bags are...

This morning, the love of my life left. ..my memory foam mattress...it went to a good home and I woke up with a stiff hip after sleeping on it for 11 hours... the mattress is asking me to get out of here.
My apartment is mostly clean.  The last of my possesions are being distributed to friends to watch over. Part of me wonders if I should have held on to my apartment and renting it out. But at this point my bags are almost packed and I have to get moving.

California Dreaming

I am getting nostalgic as I prepare for my travels. This yard reminds me of the splendor that is succulent plants in LA. Wonderdul color and texture.
